p38 drivers front window

Hi ya Changing an window accuator on my 97 2.5dse range as it was knocking on closure,before i ordered the accuator the window stopped working all together so i ordered a motor also, Stripped out the assembley today and found the teeth missing as suspected but the new motor still dont work, checked the 30amp (f22) fuse under drivers seat all ok. Does anyone have any ideas please !!!!

check the switch on the centre console

I did strip out the switch panel its and have a look its all looks ok the only thing i can say is that i am getting the message that the window is not set so its sending the signal to the ecu maybe there might be a relay ????

Check wiring from door to Becm the wiring loom from door runs down inside the cars right hand side cover behind bonnet opening lever then runs along the floor,remove plastic trim on door sill and plastic trim around bottom of drivers seat this gives access to BECM terminals lift up drivers floor carpet and this exposes the wiring loom as it goes to the BECM there are 2.no black plastic clips that retain the wiring loom undo these now wiggle the harness wires with the ignition on(make sure you have removed the drivers door card first to expose the Drivers door out station etc)if you hear clicking noises coming from the out station on the drivers door try operating the window switch at this time if the widow operates you know you will have a either a bad BECM connection on the wiring loom or a broken wire. First clean the BECM connector plug and terminals if this cures it all is well if not you will have to check each wire from the plug for continuity with the door out station plugs. On a further point carefully split the rubber cover that protects the door wiring harness as it leaves the car as you open the door and check the wires individually for damage.
Best of Luck I have been there and resolve the same problem
